This article will instruct you on how to custom style a Grid Widget using Custom CSS. If you're looking to customise a widget using our Javascript API - you can find the documentation here.
You can use the Code Editor to modify both your Custom Tile, Custom CSS and JavaScript. The CSS editor supports LESS CSS pre-processor. That means you can use both traditional CSS syntax or the better LESS syntax.
You can now also click the fork link at the top-right corner of each editor pane. This brings the boilerplate code from the Nosto's UGC codebase so that you don't need to write from scratch or copy & paste from our Developer Portal.
Currently the Custom Tile editor is only available in the Grid, Masonry and the Blank Canvas widgets. Unlike other widgets, you are free to change the tile HTML structure according to your need. However, you will need to learn the template syntax Mustache.js. You can check which tile properties are available.
The below Layout demonstrates the wrappers of our Widget tiles.
